What began with teapots and a single spiral, has evolved into a series of vases that vary in form, degree of expansion, and number of coils. Each vessel is wheel thrown then deconstructed. This process reveals aspects of the vase that most rarely encounter. Within the walls, maker’s marks become evident and contribute to the texture. The resultant ribbon effect, reminiscent of a wheel trimming, lends fragility, elegance, and motion to a medium generally perceived as hard and heavy. This emphasizes a resistance of gravity, allowing negative space to unravel and become part of the form. The result is a body of sculptural objects, resembling and born of functional vessels.

Michael Boroniec's "Things They Left Behind," sculptures honor his childhood friend, a West Point graduate. The works re-objectify, in ceramic materials, the uniforms and equipment that will travel with Captain Russo into the war zone.

'Glass of Absinthe' is a free standing porcelain sculpture finished in a trompe l'oeil bronze finish. The work pays homage to Picasso's 'Glass of Absinthe' produced in a series of 6 bronze casting during 1914. Since the ban on Absinthe has been lifted in 1990, the once popular drink of the paris salon is again finding its way into an underground culture.
